Made me laugh out loud!

This is the funniest, spicy romance book that I have heard in a long time! The characters are so realistic. I found myself laughing out loud at the dialogue as I could hear my girlfriends and I having the same conversations. Highly recommend this book!

I was given a copy of this book in return for my unbiased review which I have given above.

Endearing

I liked this contemporary romance. Nadine endured devastating loss emotionally crippling her to pursue love and happiness. Her meeting Hartley opened her eyes and heart to possibility.

Narrator Ms. Kaye did a fabulous job of voicing the characters.

what a circus- three rings!!

I was expecting wild and crazy and got some real heart tuggers too. I empathized with Hartley, but wish he'd would have manned up sooner- like weeks ago!!! Clara was an awful person before thst last tidbit of info came out at
her wedding! Pot calling the kettle black . Great ending. The narrator did a good job.

A good story.

A good story. The author does a good job of telling the story of a wedding planner falling in love.

Good narration. I would listen to books narrated by Tara-Louise Kaye again

What a rollercoaster of emotions

This story was a bunch of emotions for me.

The characters (main and secondary) and the plotlines of the story really were really good, and entertaining.

One thing in this story is that pregnancy, even talking about some of the hard topics, is a recurring theme of the story, so if you are not a fan than this is not the story for you.

One thing that was odd was that there was a reference to high school early in the story, when later talking about the school system, talking about secondary. I am fairly unfamiliar with the British school system, and even I know high school is not a term they use.

Sometimes, the plot could be seen a mile away, but I really enjoyed it anyway.

The narrator was excellent, and it felt like I could totally understand Nadine as how she felt her emotions, and thoughts.

This is the second book in the series, but I never felt like I was missing out any information by not reading the first.

Overall, 4 stars.

fun and sexy

This narrator was a perfect fit for this story. I really do love that Laura's heroines are always very real people who arent perfect but just regular women living their lives.
I found Hartley just as Divine as Nadine does. the ups and downs of the relationship as well as Nadines heartbreak with her former lover mad this feel real and I celebrated the end as I would with any close friend.

Sweet heartbreaking happy

I always wonder how women cope with such a great loss. This story gives you one site.
Well written full of grief British humour and everything between.
the author does well building up the story and the narrator finish it. Well done.

The Wedding Planner

While it has been a long time since I saw the 2001 movie The Wedding Planner, this novel follows the sentiment; falling for the groom. Nadine's life seems to follow Murphy's Law in a humerus and easy going way. She is a woman with a heart of gold and good intentions with some serious losses in her past, making her jaded.

The narrator did an excellent job with all the character voices and while this was a first for me, I will certainly look for more books narrated by her.

Trigger warning: this book does deal with a baby being born a sleeping angel and the mothers grief after a few years.

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and am proving my honest review voluntarily.

Very cute and romantic!

This is a very cute romance! Nadine meets Hartley—the groom of one of her wedding planning clients—and hilarious sparks fly! Some of the humor is kinda gross and not for the faint of stomach. Tara-Louise Kaye kills it as a narrator!! Awesomely good! This audiobook was gifted in exchange for an honest review.

Spoiler free review

this was a fun story to listen to. i mean, it had its emotional parts, but the overall was cute. I enjoyed the narrator, she was new to me. I love the British accent.
